The Mandarin Oriental brand was started in 1963 in Hong Kong and in 1974, was born out of
collaboration between The Mandarin in Hong Kong and The Oriental in Bangkok. The Mandarin was
the tallest building on the island when it opened and instantly became a historic landmark. The
Oriental was also acknowledged as one of the world’s most legendary hotels. Both these hotels were
landmarks and had a reputation for offering excellent service. In 1985, these two hotels and others in
the region were merged into a single organization and brand under the name Mandarin Oriental Hotel
Group. Over the next 44 years, the Group launched more hotels across the region. In 1987, it
launched its first U.S. property in San Francisco, and in the mid-1990s, the London flagship hotel was
launched. In late 2003, the Group opened the ‘Mandarin Oriental New York’ in the iconic Time Warner
building and the first ‘Residences at Mandarin Oriental’ above the hotel, cementing its position in the
U.S. market. In 2005, the second luxury hotel in Hong Kong ‘The Landmark Mandarin Oriental’ was
launched and featured spacious, modern facilities renowned for its spectacular design. In 2011, the
Group entered the Paris market to great acclaim, with a property situated in the prime location of Rue
St. Honoré. In 2013, it continued expansion in China with the launch of two hotels in Guangzhou and
Shanghai. Both hotels received the Hurun ‘Hot Hotel’ award in their opening year, one of the most
recognized awards in China. Mandarin Oriental is the only luxury hotel group to have 10 Forbes ‘Five-
Star’ spas across its global portfolio –more than any other hotel group in the world. This helped the
Group firmly established itself as one of the most elegant and luxurious hotel groups, renowned for
offering comfortable and well-appointed accommodation, exceptional facilities and some of the finest
restaurants and bars in the region. This was underpinned by impeccable service inspired by its Asian
heritage, which made Mandarin Oriental the hotel of choice for locals and luxury travelers alike. Its
aim is not to be the biggest hotel group in the world, but to be recognized as providing the very best in
luxury hospitality.
